Summary
This project involving creating a process for integrating the Fortify Open Review Process into the OWASP project development lifecycle and working with Fortify to develop and test their new Open Review site at http://owasp.fortify.com/. The OWASP EU Summit presentation contains a more detailed summary of the project.
Goals
The goals of this project were to:
- Create a process for integrating the Fortify Open Review into open source development, so that source code review can be a required step in OWASP development.
- Test functionality of the new Fortify Open Review site introduced in Summer 2008.
- Scan 10 OWASP projects with the Fortify Open Review to verify the site's functionality and establish a baseline.
- Scan 25 popular open source PHP projects to verify the site's ability to handle large scale projects and establish a baseline.
Process
The purpose of this workflow is to integrate and automate SCA into the development cycle of open source applications for the sole purpose of decreasing software vulnerabilities. This effort can, and should, be supplemented by a manual code review as described in the OWASP Open Review Project. The workflow diagrams can be found in Workflow.zip. Within the ZIP file, overview.pdf describes the relationships between the different parts of the workflow. The file start.pdf describes the first step of the workflow which verifies that the project is an OWASP project. If it is not then the project is added as a new OWASP project File:Workflow Draft1.pdf. Once the project is established as an OWASP project, it can be added by an OWASP administrator (contact the project mailing list below to contact an OWASP administrator) to the Fortify Open Review (reference createProject.pdf).
As described in the Fortify Open Review process, the Project Lead or Source Code Review Lead can choose between a continuous evaluation, where the project is checked out from its repository and the Open Review scan is updated on a weekly basis, or a one time analysis as part of their usual development process (see waterfall.pdf and iterative.pdf) after unit testing and prior to final system testing. The single analysis requires the evaluator to produce and upload a Fortify FPR scan file, which requires either that the evaluator uses their own copy of Fortify SCA or contacts an OWASP administrator via the project mailing list to request a scan. In order to track project progress over time, single analyses of major project versions will be maintained on the project web site so that software vulnerability metrics can be tracked. The continuous evaluation is automated, does not require the developer have a Fortify SCA license. There are additional open source static analysis tools that can be used as part of a project's development lifecycle on a regular basis, such as FindBugs (see findBugs.pdf) and OWASP Orizon.
Of course, once vulnerabilities are detected, they need to be either fixed or marked as false positives through the Fortify Open Review site interface. See the OWASP Code Review Guide for information on how to fix common vulnerabilities.

Get involved
We need OWASP project leaders to submit their projects for review. We will work with you to upload your project and review the findings, so that we can get each OWASP project to show zero defects.
